This is a functional box with a working hinge designed in SolidWorks and optimized for 3D printing. The hinge is print-in-place and does not require assembly after printing.

The hinge clearance is designed to allow smooth movement after printing, but the clearance may be adjusted depending on your printer tolerance.

Box dimensions: 50 × 50 × 40 mm
